    Buying Snow Tires – What You Need to Know

    January 15, 2018 /

    Buying snow tires is something I have debated and put off for a couple of winter seasons now. Last year I got new all-season tires in the spring and assumed they’d get me through the winter. It wasn’t a super snowy year, but there were a few challenging winter road trips, especially on our annual trip to Vermont. This year with all the snow in the forecast, and the number of ski road trips we take, I knew I needed them so I started shopping months ago. I had so many questions initially. Are they worth the money? What kind should I buy? Which snow tires are best with my…

    Buying Tires – What do You Need to Know?

    May 25, 2016 /

    Buying tires involves more than just going out and picking the first thing you see. It’s actually quite involved as I found out recently. From getting the right size to picking the tread to finding a good price, buying tires requires some forethought to make sure you get the right tires for your vehicle, your area of the world, and your driving conditions. Bald Tires are Not Safe My tires have been bald for quite some time. Last Christmas, right before we left for Miami and a winter cruise, the regular service person I deal with warned me I needed new tires. Where to Start? Frankly, I had no real idea…

    What’s This Minivan Driving Mom Doing at Daytona International Speedway? #LoveDaytonaBeach

    November 17, 2015 /

    Fast cars have never really been my thing. I’m more of a minivan driving Mom who, up until recently, never got a speeding ticket in her life. I didn’t grow up with Nascar nostalgia. So how did this happen? How did I end up touring Daytona International Speedway on a recent trip through Central Florida’s Daytona Beach area, and more importantly how did I find myself enjoying the experience, even plotting a return one day to see more? Well, let’s see….where should I start? Sometimes I find myself in odd places. Sometimes I am incredibly surprised that I enjoy doing something I never thought I would. For instance, earlier this year when…

    Maple Leaf Monster Jam Tour 2015 Giveaway #Ldnont

    February 11, 2015 /

    Maple Leaf Monster Jam is my youngest daughter’s favourite annual family show. Why? Because Maple Leaf Monster Jam arrives every year around March, the time of her birthday. Every year she goes with her father and sometimes the rest of us too, and we enjoy the show together. But in years gone by, several special years in a row, it was just Ainsley and Dad. A Special London Event So it’s kind of a dad and daughter date. That makes her happy and it’s kind of memorable for both of them. Together, they revel in the crazy antics of Maple Leaf Monster Jam trucks like Northern Nightmare. On those years…
